Right on schedule, Raiders will see the return of safety Nate Allen from partial season injured reserve. He was the starter for the team's opener but injured his MCL and was placed on IR: Designated for Return. Since then, he has been on schedule to return as he has been eligible.
Allen was eligible to return to practice two weeks ago and is eligible to return to the active roster this week when the Raiders face the Vikings in Oakland.
Jack Del Rio confirmed Allen's availability this week and he is very glad to have his starting safety back.
